Chapter 956: The Liberation of Shenwu, a Big Gamble (4k)

The shattered Rainbow Bridge fell apart, and countless debris fell down. Among the debris, the figure standing above the cycle of reincarnation was reflected in the eyes of the three overlords.

At that moment, there were no other thoughts, only an unprecedented fear and despair that instantly crawled over the hearts of the three masters like dense black ants.

Horrified!

They watched everything before them with their own eyes, and felt unbelievable!
——As the huge Rainbow Bridge collapsed, countless ruins fell downwards, and were crushed into powder in the rolling fog of reincarnation, turning into ashes!

As for the three masters who were in the middle of it, they had no power to resist at all and were swept away by the terrifying reincarnation storm, like a small boat in the endless ocean!
"what!!!"

Along with the desperate howls, the bodies of the three masters were torn apart in an instant, and all their vitality was crushed by the power of reincarnation, and they died!
But their souls still cannot escape.

Just look at the ghost gate wide open, the vicious ghosts drag the souls of the three masters into the underworld and the eighteen hells.

Yu Chen took a deep breath and looked at the collapsed Rainbow Bridge.

His previous guess was correct. This Rainbow Bridge was the thing that refined the souls of countless creatures in the Nine Heavens into incense. It was also the center of the entire Nine Heavens.

So with the collapse of the Rainbow Bridge, countless dense chains appeared above the sky and the earth.

From the bright light at the beginning, it became dim, became broken, gradually lost its original shape, and fell apart!
And as these countless chains collapsed, crisp breaking sounds were heard!

——In the entire world of the Nine Heavens.

Yu Chen lowered his head and looked over. With his vision at the Dao Fruit realm, he could easily see subtle shattering sounds coming from deep within the flesh and souls of countless creatures in the Ninth Heaven.

——Bang bang bang bang!

Everlasting!
The destiny star, that is, the "curse" implanted in the soul of the creature in the ninth heaven, was reduced to ashes!

Immediately afterwards, the souls of the three masters confessed in the underworld.

They were not like the Demon Fetus Master, who changed his career late and did not gain the trust of Taoist Feng Yin.

Therefore, they know more about Hongqiao and the entire Nine Heavens.

In short, the entire world of the Nine Heavens is like a huge sandbox, and they, the masters, live in that sandbox and control everything.

But the one who truly dominates everything outside the sandbox is Taoist Feng Yin!

Taoist Feng Yin originally set up a huge formation across the entire Nine Heavens, covering the nine levels of heaven and earth.

The Rainbow Bridge is the core of this formation, and the Nine Heavens Sand Table is the derivative of this formation, so it can evolve the changes of the entire Nine Heavens.

The three masters did not know the name of this huge formation. They only heard Taoist Feng Yin mention that it was a gift from the "Gods".

At the same time, every living being born in this formation will have a curse implanted deep in their flesh, blood, and soul at the moment of birth.

This is the key to allowing them to manifest in the Nine Heavens Plate, and it is also the ideological imprint that ensures they will not "rebel" against the gods.

——However, because Shenwu’s power would leak out occasionally, the awakened people who were possessed by Shenwu’s phoenix power would have that terrifying power burn out the curse seal in their bodies, thus giving rise to the will to resist.

At the same time, the three masters also knew that the huge formation with the Rainbow Bridge as its center actually had another greatest function in addition to the above-mentioned functions.

——Suppression.

Although they did not know what terrible thing was being suppressed, they had never seen or heard of it.

However, he had some vague guesses in his mind that it was the existence that caused countless people of Apocalypse to awaken, the existence they called "Mother".

In addition to this, Yu Chen also gave it a try.

——After the death of these three masters, everyone’s memory of them did not disappear, whether it was Zhang Xianzhi or the evil spirit Gui Li from the underworld.

Therefore, one thing that can be confirmed is that the problem of the Lord of the Holy Bow comes from himself, and not from the ancient immortal lineage of Wutong Continent.

After realizing this, Yu Chen took a deep breath and looked up at the sky.

——Since this huge formation with Hongqiao as its center bears the important role of suppressing Shenwu.

That is to say, when it collapsed, Shenwu would have been liberated.

The Shenwu that has existed since the ancient Three Realms period countless years ago, after being imprisoned for countless tens of thousands of years by the ancient immortals because of the betrayal of Taoist Feng Yin, finally... broke free!
And it seemed to respond to his thoughts.

After the endless chains above the sky collapsed, the entire world began to tremble violently!

Rumble!
The endless darkness was like the remaining snow melting away in the scorching sun, leaving not a trace!
Instead, the golden red color, symbolizing nirvana and rebirth, covered the entire sky and earth!
The originally gloomy sky became clear and magnificent, and an endless and scorching breath poured down.

And above the nine heavens and earth, the barren and dry soil also burst into life again at this moment. The grass and trees grew wildly, and the rain was abundant. Under the heavy rain carrying the endless Qi of heaven and earth, all the filth and evil were evaporated!
Faintly, Yu Chen felt a huge will about to awaken!
At the same time, Yu Chen seemed to sense something, his mind moved, and he turned his wrist.

A gray book appeared in his palm.

——The Sutra of Saving People.

The pages of the book turned over automatically without any wind.

A blazing golden light burst out.

On the banks of the Yellow Springs River, in the vast fog, the ghosts of the Nine Phoenix tribe seemed to have sensed something, with expressions of relief in their eyes.

At the same time, their endless obsession finally dissipated at this moment.

——Their mother, their homeland, the root of their Nine Phoenix lineage, the eternal Shenwu, has been liberated!

The obsession is gone and the last wish is fulfilled!
In the real world, as the golden light of the Sutra of Saving People was shining, Yu Chen only felt the earth spinning before his eyes, as if he was being pulled into the dark by an inexplicable force.

When everything in front of him became clear again, he looked around.

The sky was vast and scarlet, the earth was boiling and blazing, and the void was filled with endless Yin and death. Looking down again, I saw the rolling Yellow Springs, with no beginning and no end; the Fengdu Ghost City, majestic and vast; the Eighteen Hells, harsh and terrifying...

At first glance, it looked like the underworld. But only Yu Chen knew that this was not the real underworld.

As if guided by something, he landed on the ground and walked towards the center of Fengdu Ghost City.

Crossing the bustling Wangui Street, we arrived at the majestic Fengdu Enemy Palace. The huge palace was empty and utterly silent.

Only on the high throne, there was a tall and huge illusory figure sitting upright.

As Yu Chen approached, he finally saw the other person's appearance clearly.

——He wears a crown with twelve tassels on his head and a black and gold imperial robe. His divine power covers the past and present. His infinite aura overwhelms the heaven and earth. His feet control the six directions and his body sits in the eight wildernesses. He is majestic and solemn, like an abyss or a prison!

It was the previous King of Fengdu, Dating!
Yu Chen raised his eyebrows.

——Is this the reward for completing the second-level wish this time?
Before he could open his mouth, the Emperor of Fengdu spoke up: "Nice to meet you again, little guy. It must have taken you a long time to get to this point, right?"

It is obvious that he cannot see Yu Chen, let alone communicate with him, so his words must have been left behind countless millions of years ago.

——The Sutra of Saving People itself was made from his skin mixed with countless divine materials. All his perceptions, methods, and the treasures of heaven and earth that he possessed were sealed in it. According to Yu Chen's growth, it gave him resources and strength step by step, helping him to successfully ascend to the throne of Fengdu.

"Don't be surprised. I said last time that it would be the last time we met."

Emperor Fengdu continued, “So I am now just a projection. I cannot talk to you, let alone answer your questions. But I guess you have already asked all your questions last time.

Let's get back to the point. This is a projection I left behind. Not only me, but also the underworld outside, are not real, they are just projections. At the same time... this is also my life energy. So, I guess you have guessed that the reward this time is... my life energy. "

After hearing this, Yu Chen's eyes widened.

The natal qi?

He is very familiar with this thing, or rather, every Qi cultivator is familiar with it.

If the interior of the divine vine and the Dao fruit are a huge gourd, then the life energy is the water filled in it.

——Although it is called this name from beginning to end, the innate Qi of the low-level Qi cultivator and the innate Qi of the great supernatural power practitioner in the realm of heaven and man are not the same thing.

For example, the life energy of Emperor Fengdu is a combination of his divine power, divine might, and strength.

To put it simply, if placed in the mortal world, the so-called innate qi is the "power" gained by the hard practice of those internal masters, and it is the source for displaying magical powers and Taoism.

This means... the world before our eyes and the projection of Emperor Fengdu are... the lifelong power of that Dating!

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Yu Chen's heart began beating violently!

Of course he knew what this meant.

To put it simply and crudely, if his reward this time is the life energy of Fengdu Emperor, it is tantamount to a young boy gaining the "skills" of hundreds of years of a peerless master, soaring into the sky and making the leap over the dragon gate!

"Just as you guessed."

As if Fengdu Emperor understood what Yu Chen was thinking, he continued, "I will pass on all my life's Qi to you. If you accept, no matter what realm you are in now, you will be able to inherit all my power in a short period of time.

Tempting, isn't it? This is the power of a great emperor. With it, you only need to digest and absorb it for a short time, and you will be able to fully possess the power to match that of Zhang Bairen and Zhen Yuanzi - well... if they are still alive when you reach that time."

After hearing this, Yu Chen's heart moved!
Emperor!

The power of the emperor!

That is the most heavenly among heavens, the most supreme among the supreme, with such terrifying power that even the ancient immortals and royal family can be crushed with ease!
Comparable to...the King of Ancient Immortals!
"but……"

Suddenly, the Emperor of Fengdu changed the subject and continued, "Before that, you have to understand one thing - all this life energy, all this power, is my path.

My road has already come to an end, to the top of the mountain, to the end where I can go no further.

If you decide to inherit all of my power, then your way, your path, and your power will be covered by me.

And the most important point is that when I was at my peak, it was the end of your life, and you will never make any progress at all!"

The King of Fengdu changed his peaceful tone and became serious and cautious.

“——Although I have explored with Zhenyuanzi Zhang Bairen for countless thousands of years to find out whether there is a more mysterious and profound realm above the heavenly beings, in the end, until the destruction of the three realms, we still had no clue.

But just because you have no clue doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Therefore, once you choose to fully accept my life energy, it can indeed help you gain the status and power of an emperor in a short period of time, but at the same time you will also be trapped by my realm and will never be able to continue to climb to the top.

Frankly speaking, I don't want you to make this choice, otherwise my willingness to die so that you can be reborn will be meaningless."

After a pause, Emperor Fengdu continued, "So, you have another choice - I will also give you all of my life energy, but it will not be like an epiphany. Instead, I will use my life energy, my life's power, to build a foundation for you...!
Although its effect can also improve your Taoism and realm, it is definitely a world of difference compared to accepting my power in its entirety.

But if so, I will use the life-long strength of an emperor of the Three Realms to build a foundation for you, and you will have a slight chance to peek into the realms above heaven and man.

Of course, I still cannot confirm whether such a possibility exists. Maybe it is just an illusion or a dream.

Therefore, my advice to you is this - if by the time you inherit such power, the world is in balance, the ancient immortals have calmed down, and the mastermind behind the scenes has long been dealt with, I recommend that you choose the former. After all, giving up all the power of an emperor for that vague possibility is enough to make you regret it for the rest of your life.

However, if your world is not so peaceful now, the power of the emperor is not enough to make you feel at ease, nor is it enough to protect the three realms. I recommend that you choose... the latter. "

As he spoke, he raised his hand.

In an instant, both the King of Fengdu himself and the projection of the entire underworld all converged at that point at the same time, turning into a gray-black crystal ball the size of a human head, covered with dense lines, as if it was extremely heavy and majestic!
The last voice of King Fengdu echoed in Yu Chen's ears.

"If you choose the former, refine it; if you choose the latter, smash it."

"The choice of my successor is left to you. This is a... big gamble, so please consider it carefully!"
